Bald Head Island
Without question, the beauty of Bald Head Island is the outdoors. Fourteen miles of unspoiled beaches call you to soak up the sun or watch tiny sea turtles as they hatch and make their way out to the sea. Walk to the tip of the Cape Fear where the waves from the Atlantic Ocean merge from opposite directions and you'll feel like you're far away from civilization. To the north, a tidal creek and salt marsh are brimming with a variety of sea life on aqua culture. On a kayak, you'll see the island from a whole different perspective. Or take a totally different trek through the maritime forest, where marked trails will let you on a wildlife journey through live oaks and palmettos. If you're lucky, you'll see the red fox carrying home his dinner. And when the scenery wears you out, there's plenty more to do.
